A big difference and so there is still room for discussion but the hour long acrimonious debate that has been characteristic of these meetings one is trying to avoid today theres been a lot of consultation in the last few days and one is hoping that this paper that has been agreed on will be passed more or less without much resistance part of the discussions about a hard lock down and the impact it will have on business and we issue the meeting of nickel and they state leaders will also discuss compensation. Yes absolutely that will be one Central Point of discussion theres been an open letter today from some of the major retail chains in germany and theyre warning that if a locked on is taking effect immediately before the christmas before christmas that they are going to lose their christmas business that that business is going to be pushed into the internet and they say this could be the end of high street retailing as we know it so there is a lot of stake a lot at stake and a lot of pressure coming from these companies the government is going to pay a compensation once talking about somewhere around 10000000000. 00 euros per month and the question really is whos going to pay all much of that is going to land on the desk of the Central Government and how much of it is going to be paid by the various regions i think that to store to some extent open for debate the debit Political Correspondent hans brunt thanks so much ok lets take a look at some of the other stories making news elsewhere in the world now there had been 16000000 recorded Coronavirus Infections in the u. S. It comes as a major logistical operation gets underway to deliver the biotech Pfizer Vaccine across the country vaccine is said to be given to millions of the most vulnerable americans 1st those tests and also israel has established diplomatic relations with bhutan its the latest in a string of deals by the jewish state to normalize ties freddie Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu held the agreement america has just become the 4th arab state to begin relations with its administration. Well its crunch time in the breaks of trade deal negotiations with just 3 weeks and till the u. K. Leaves the e. U. Single market there is no sign of a deal on what the 2 partys future trading relationship will look like britains mining breaks it negotiated david frost has been at the European Commission in brussels this morning locked in last ditch talks in an attempt to secure a deal that breaks the transition period ends on december 31st and in agreement hangs in the balance. From generally 1st british drivers on french or italian roads maybe needing some additional pieces of paper a green insurance card and an International Drivers license and the future of their Health Coverage in europe is also still up in the air. Not so happy holidays for certain loving brits in spain theyll be soon and was everyone else and must apply and pay for a long stay visa if they want to enjoy their holiday homes for more than 90 days because from now on Free Movement more be free anymore. Meanwhile e. U. Citizens hoping to make a life in britain will be faced with a points based immigration system and prove their worst to the British State bad news for british farmers desperately looking for help during harvest time. Traffic jams at the borders will simply become effect of life because goods entering and leaving the e. U. Will undergo new checks and require lots of new paperwork so get ready truckers for those half an hour waits for these fishermen in the north of france breaks it is bad news they lose unfettered access to british waters home to 80 percent of their catch that means their livelihood is at risk but british fisherman should not start rejoicing yet most of their catch is sold on the european market. Its all change for bankers and brokers how much when and where theyll be allowed to work in the European Union will be totally in brussels hands to avoid nessie surprises many banks and Insurance Companies have already established a legal presence somewhere new european country. Well as the hours tick down on the final day of negotiation we bring in our correspondent Marina Strauss in brussels right now as weve seen in the report there are apparent irreconcilable differences on several topics which the main crunch points and is there any chance that one or any could be clarified on what is supposed to be a decision that. The sticking points have been the same over the last couple of years anthony and weve just seen in the report that actually fish is a really important topic here because brits say they want to gain back control over british waters and that would obviously mean that french fisherman and french fish are women would have x. X. Restraint access or no access to british waters and especially the french government says here no we dont want our fisherman our fish or to become a victim of said no theres no option like theres no room for compromise here and actually tensions have been running high yesterday because the British Government announced they will send navy vessels to guard the british coast in case of a no deal some say there is some room for compromise when it comes to fish because economically speaking its not super important but its very symbolic for the british and for the french side so its its unlikely that france will give in here a 2nd point is the socalled level Playing Field so the e. U. Says. It custom free trade is only possible with the u. K. If the u. K. Alliance with your rules for a cut for example when it comes to Environmental Standards no social standards but that is ok theres a lot of talk about u. K. Sovereignty is so this is a very difficult point because if this compromise were talking about timing could the negotiations possibly be extended if theres no deal today. This sunday deadline is actually a self set deadline by the u. K. And the e. U. And looking back over the last 4 and a half years we know that deadlines dont mean a lot in this debate and this bracks its better because they have been postponed over and over again and the u. K. Foreign minister dominic rock rob actually said this morning that. He doesnt want to close a door on this so theres a likelihood that negotiations will go on even after this evening another big day coming up ernest ross in brussels thanks so much well the Quick Development of coronavirus vaccines has been grabbing the headlines but the pain the mic is also spurred inventors to come up with other tools against the virus and next report looks at some simple but effective innovations that could help save lives for. Is this simple light bulb a weapon against the coronavirus. Rosario valas thinks together with other researchers the doctor invented this l. E. D. Lamp its light has certain frequency characteristics which could destroy the coronavirus. This is similar to an ordinary one you screw it in switch it on and it works. In the light and then destroys all microorganisms by destroying their structure that is the outer membrane and in the case of the corona virus probably also the protein spike the sting. By this is already worked with bacteria and a series of experiments carried out by the researchers together with the of chalion military have now also shown that the special l. E. D. Light destroys the corona virus and its not harmful to humans either. For now we have to fine tune the whole experiment in some way because we must not forget that up to now we have done the whole thing and Laboratory Conditions which are different from the normal environment. The coronavirus pandemic in italy has also inspired other inventions. So we leave that report for good reason lets go live to german chancellor Angela Merkels press conference shes just had a meeting with german state leaders and is expected to announce an even tougher lockdown a surge in the number of coronavirus deaths has prompted her and the government to take action lets listen in for this is because the measures that we put into place on the 2nd of november have not been sufficient. For a while we were able to stop the exponential growth and had a plateau movements but now we are seeing a new rise in infections an exponential growth once again and what that means is that many people are dying you will have been following the statistics im sure and we also know that we are close to exceeding the response capacity of our Public Health systems and our aim was always to prevent this. And this is why we must act and we must act fast in the results of the decisions that we made today the aim remains. Being able to trace contacts once again so that means we need an incident rate of 50 cases perhaps 100000 inhabitants in a 7 day period and below now all of this will impact on our Holiday Season as we are well aware but we must act and we will act. We have. Decided all together that the ordinances of the federal states will be in place until the 10th of january. But for now but the aim remains to bring the incidence rate down so what happens from early january cannot be predicted now it will depend on the results that we achieve with this so we remain with personal contact such that we can meet friends and family members but a maximum of 5 people from 2 households at once and this is only from the 24th until the 26th of december there will be an exception but not on new years and not on new years eve and so this means that above and beyond your own household you can invite 4 other people. In the holiday period from your closest friends and families to your partner. Or. Direct relations your parents and your children. And sibling us. But we would like to appeal to all citizens and if you are inviting other households over for christmas or other holidays please. Reduce your contacts for 7 days before you do that so to have a protection week and then from new years afternoon is there. Will be no changes but from wednesday. They 16th of december we will be Closing Retail apart from essential goods retail for
